Premier choice for Sexual Health in Davis, Beverly Hills, and Los Angeles

Did you know that you’re not alone if you’re experiencing sexual symptoms? Nearly half of all post-pubertal women in the U.S. and the vast majority of peri- and post-menopausal women experience sexual symptoms that reduce their desire for physical intimacy. Hormone fluctuations can play a role, but there are many other factors at play. Chronic illnesses such as hypertension, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and depression, as well as the medications used to treat them, can interfere with sexual response. Even birth control pills may have a negative effect.

If you’re struggling with sexual symptoms, it’s important to seek help. By addressing the root cause of your symptoms, sexual medicine can help you restore your sexual health and get back to feeling confident and fulfilled.
